I have to install two network printers via IP printing for about 50 users. That will be 100 installs and is very time consuming Anyone know if there is a way to script or create an .exe file to automate this process? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I've only used prncnfg.vbs, but there's a bunch of scripts you might check out. Perhaps there's a way to set it through these scripts, but I got lazy and just imported registry files to set duplex/tray info.
Prncnfg.vbs
Configures or displays configuration information about a printer
Prnport.vbs
